3 years agoCleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Indiana due to a sore lower back. Garland recently missed four contests due to the ailment, before returning to log 27 points in 30 minutes Wednesday. Without Garland in the mix, Caris LeVert should see his DFS ceiling raised exponentially, especially considering his matchup with his former team. Rajon Rondo should stand out as an upside play in his own right. Garland has emerged as a first-time All-Star, on pace for career highs in scoring (19.9), assists (8.1), rebounds (3.3), and shooting percentage (47.4%) as he has spurred Cleveland near the top of the Eastern Conference standings. His next chance to suit up comes Saturday vs. the 76ers.--Jesse Borek
